  1. I am proud to be a canadian, but depending on any culture, i would be proud to be everything i am. Canada has many things to offer, plus our society is pretty diverse and respectful. Living in canada, i have seen very little racism or rebellion. Im probably most proud of our welcome to immigrants or difference, such as opening our doors to refugees, and gay marriage already being legalized . Something i feel we should really focus on before everybody else, is our native peoples, they were here first and they deserve their rights as everybody else.

  2. I am proud to be a Canadian for many reasons. We are one of the cleanest country's in the world we have a low population for a place so big but we sill manage to do very well. I am very proud of how we have our own culture and the schools we have and the fact that we have one of the best school system in the world. Of course we have our flaws but of course everything has flaws.

  3. I am proud to be from Canada. Overall we are very accepting, and diverse. We are very peaceful and have a low crime rate. I have a strong connection to Canada because I am native to Canada, and to be more specific Metis. To be apart of a group of people who are generally kind and peaceful is very comforting, and it is something that makes me very proud.

  4. I am obviously that i am proud to be from Canada because it is my favorite area in the world even though there is snow. My favorite part about being Canadian is the hockey, because Canada is known for having really good skilled, and physical hockey teams/players. Its the best part of Canada for me 'cause hockey is my favorite thing and i'm happy to be known as a Canadian hockey player

  6. I am proud to be Canadian because we have a lot of culture in this country and we accept everyone. I am proud to be Canadian since we have some of the best hockey players who have ever played in the NHL. I think this country is the safest and the most diverse and that's another reason why I am proud.

  7. I like being a Canadian, everyone thinks we are nice and we have the best maple syrup eyyyyyyy. I enjoy living in Montreal because there is a lot of culture in this city, we got poutine the french because you know i'm great at french. Justin Bieber and the snow arent't the best but I guess you gotta live with it.

  8. Yes I am proud to be a Canadian because we are known to be kind to others, we aren’t racist, etc. We are also known for our amazing maple syrup. The things I am most proud of by being a Canadian would be the poutine because it tastes amazing. I also really like Justin Bieber because he’s an amazing singer and he has good songs.

  9. Well, I’m not canadian but there is definitely a lot of things that I like about Canada. I really enjoy the safety and the education. I like how there are rules and they are followed strictly by the citizens. The food is great and the culture is unique and special. The people is very nice and kind and always ready to help someone in trouble. So, when I go back I’ll probably miss a lot of canadian stuff which is very sad because there is no way I can get them.

  10. I am very proud of being a Canadian because Canada is a safe place against terrist and big dangers while other places are constantly attacked by terrist or just natural danger example usa lots of tornados. If I wasn't a Canadian I would probably want to move to Canada to become a Canadian.

  11. I am not a Canadians but I like a lot of things here. In here, I have safe environment without lots of crime and the danger of terrist. Here have better education and better chance than China. Unlike China, there isn't so many people, so you don't have to spend you vacations in crowded. Also, people here is very nice and friendly. I think if I have choice, I am going to live here in a long time.

  12. I am proud to be a Canadian because we have the best maple syrup. I like how we have "Free Healthcare." We don't have Donald Trump, but sadly we have Justin Bieber. The weather is all freezing cold and snowy. Living in Canada is good but the weather is just no.

  13. I am proud to be a Canadian because of many reasons. One of which is that we are one of the only countries with free healthcare. If I were to need surgery and I was living in the united states I would have to pay thousands of dollars to get it. Another reason is that we are a very peaceful county and I don't need to worry about anything bad happening to me.

  14. yes in some ways I am proud to be Canadian but in others i'm not like the fact that we have such crappy winters or that we a stereo-typically saying eh. I do like however that we have free health care I think it is very strong characteristic of Canada.

  15. Im proud to be a Canadian because we're one of the best country. I say that because we are peaceful, known to be nice, have free healthcare, a low population, clean water, safe and healthy environment, poutine, maple syrup, good citizens, reasonable laws, clean air, a low crime rate, a lot of territory, ect... Although there are some bad things that happened to this country (JB) we are still a great country.

  16. I'm proud to be Canadian because our country is such a peaceful country like if you look lets just say the United States a lot of things are happening like Donald trump is just a disaster and is running their country into the ground and if you think about it we're a very well developed country their is not a lot of poverty and we have good laws that are equal and easy to follow.Besides the cold winters, Canada is a great place to be.

  17. Canada is awesome the medical system is great the people here are reasonably kind and many famous people were born here. I am really proud of the sports that were created here in Canada like hockey, lacrosse and even basketball too my surprise. I enjoy playing all of them. I am quite sad that lacrosse isn’t played in the Olympics, but for reasons only Canada and parts of the US play it, so it wouldn’t really be fair to the other countries.

  23. I don't really watch hockey because I don't know I don't find it that interesting.. I've watched the playoffs a couple of times. I've also went to my friends games and it's not bad nor do I have anything against it. I'd watch it if I had no choice or once In awhile but it's not a regular thing.
